Entire net is full of stories about the great preachings of Swami Vivekananda. Craze makes people to ignore facts and truths. People believe what they want to believe, rather than what is factual and truth. I invite your questions on SWAMI VIVEKANANDA. You will get a reply which is based on some common sense and hardwork.

#206 DOES ONLY AN OCHRE ROBED PERSON SERVE THE POOR AND THE SOCIETY?

Globally, there is an impression that only preachers and organizers of Charitable Institutions serve the poor and the society. It is not correct.

Whoever discharges his duties entrusted to him by the society gracefully, whole-heartedly, honestly and to the best of his/her abilities will be fulfilling in his life.

For example: The soldiers who lay down their lives in defending a country against foreign invaders or terrorists do an equal service if not greater service than the religious preachers/missionaries and the managers of orphanages. Everyday a policeman/soldier dies fighting terrorism or criminals. The public servants know pretty well that at any time their life would be taken away and yet they fight. The Governments pay them, yet does anybody lay down his life for the sake of a few thousand bucks? The spirit of service does not make speeches or seek awards.

Such silent performers may not get the same publicity which Vivekananda or Satya Sai Baba or Amritanandamayi or Mother Teresa gets. Disproportionate publicity makes them Gods. This is what, I wanted to highlight at these blog posts.

Experience from writing this blog: Swami Vivekananda himself suffered from numerous ailments. His second visit to the U.S. was mainly for medical treatment and for mobilising funds for his personal benefit. During the second visit, he consulted practitioners of magnetic healing, homoeopathy, acupuncture etc. rather than qualified practitioners of modern medicine. Had he cared to study more of modern medicine, he would have probably saved himself.

Advise me please

Narendra Modi, the Chief Minister of Gujarat has unnecessarily brought Swami Vivekananda into Indian Politics. May be, Mr. Modi does not know the true nature of Swamiji as disclosed by his Complete Works. He does not, anyway, have time to go through the Complete Works.

Citizens of India have superman images of Swami Vivekananda in their minds. The images go against FACTS.

I invite my readers to advise me, whether I should write on Indian Politics? I already have a blog: Indianpoliticsyb.blogspot.com. But I write there, rather irregularly. It shows that I do not have much of passion towards politics.

I am an atheist and pro-left. But, I am unable to support CPI, and CPI(M) as both of them lack the essentials of Marxism. They are just tails of the bourgeois parties like Congress and BJP.

I invite my readers to advise me: Should I write about the current Indian Politics and become more contemporaneous?
